New Teamshop Update

I must compliment SP on the new Teamshop Update. There are some excellent choices, except to those people who still think Thetys is the best monster ever (she maybe was 2 years ago, well no, not even then), or to self entitled spoiled elites who can only think of ranking the next Nemesis.

Shannara's Bodyguard: possibly the most overlooked, recent monster. He has the life of a Nemesis, hits very hard on metal (Talos), is immune to stun, can remove debuffs, has some stun denial himself and even can taunt if that s what you need. Oh, and a killer special. 950 coins is an insult to his class.

Ingvar's Bodyguard: Certainly not the best Bodyguard, but still a very decent Light choice. 1100 coins seems a bit overpriced compared to Shannara's BG.

Toy Master: This was one of Your Master's favourite monsters. A very versatile denier/disruptor from the badly covered Family Book. A pity about his useless trait, but certainly worth getting if you are lacking in this book. 1250 coins seems a fair price.

Ralbog: A half decent monster for Underworld and Evil Legions. Unfortunately he simply does not hit hard enough for modern standards, but he is difficult to ignore in battle when he can burn/bleed and shield himself. Same price as Toy Master.

Cyan Nathura: A nice monster from Superheroes. Heals, poisons, regenerates. If set up properly she can be really troublesome. A pity that with 1500 coins she seems a bit over priced (because of her gold production? Imo that really should not be a factor in determining the price)

Shannara's Bodyguard can carry Shield and Banner. A shield relic slot on a high life monster is most welcome, and Banner can further extend his (and his allies') tankiness. Tenacity Shield and Vitality Banner ideally.

Toymaster can carry Trap and Staff, allowing him energy drain and gain, or dual drain.

Cyan can carry two Essence, allowing her to extend her healing role significantly.

He burns and poisons, which is nice. But he is slow. He has no denial. He has no support moves. So even though he may have a purpose under some very specific circumstances, there are many, many epics that are better than Elder Sporeling.

@Xarius
Your Master was one of the best players, if not the best player, the game has seen. Since moved on. He had enough disposable income to buy anything he wanted (and did) but still enjoyed using Epics in L wars, or breedable monsters, to win. He would often see things in monsters that the rest of us missed.

As an example a screenshot from one of his last wars before retiring. Using 3 epics against a 2 Nemesis, 1 VIP base in a 3 Nature war. This is not just Ophiuchus double possessing the enemy team and hoping for the best. The other 2 epics also play a vital role in the success of this attack and are runed and skilled to perfection, making sure that there is no room for 'bad luck' to get in the way of 3 coins.

@Ekto-Gamat Why did he leave? And what does SP think about it? They probably lost their highest paying player? Sad!

He left mainly out of frustration from continued inexplicable crashes and reboots in the game. It already is frustrating to crash once under normal circumstances. He crashed once every war on average while paying lots of gems to perfect his attack teams and spending lots of time thinking of the bests possible plans. SP does not really care about one, or even a couple of hundred, high spending players when most of their revenue is generated by thousands of small spenders and F2P players watching videos.

@Xarius he did leave some videos, but I would have to dig deep to find them. Not of this particular attack anyway, as far as I am aware. I will take a look when I have a bit more time, or maybe @C0ntr1v3d has some stored somewhere.

Wow, this is simply amazing! He must have a brilliant tactical mind and it would have been a true experience to fight alongside him!!! I'd give a lot to see a replay of the battles shown in the war logs above. That is truly playing the game and not just winning by using brute force - admirable!!!

The bases Your Master attacked were slow, but life runed bases. Normally a nightmare in all Nature wars because there is limited denial available and there is a high risk of Nadiel and Osur resisting. If you cannot kill or deny those monsters Nadiel will simply rip your team apart.

Unless of course you give precision with Lepu (so no resisting by the Nadiel), double possess the team with Ophiuchus and stun them with Dragonian Beast, who also can get precision, if any monster is still standing after the first two rounds.

@David-ML if you join FB group Monster legends latinoamerica and search for Your Master, a while back a poster accused him of hacking because YM beat his defence using 2 breedables and an Epic. YM posted a video showing the attack, in response.
